There is but one change on the main I line. An early morning train will be ' run from the West, reaching Harris i bv.rs at 3.30 a. m.

Error Cause of Wreck on Western Maryland Special to The Telegraph Hagerstown, Md., June 26. —To an error In the orders issued by Edgar H. Bloom, a telegraph operator in the company's office here, is ascribed the head-on collision of two trains near Thurmont on the Western Maryland railroad last night, when six lives were lost and many passengers were hurt. The man is prostrated. He did not seek to escape responsibility, but was on the verge of distraction as the re sult of his error. "There must have been a mix-up In my orders," he said to-day. "I did not realize that the orders were wrong until after trouble occurred to the wires and I was not able to reach the trains. Baltimore telegraphed there was wire trouble, then came a message from Thurmont that two trains had crashed and people had been killed." Bloom was almost frantic while he hold his story. "It Is awful," he con cluded.
